Institute for Creation Research presents a well-researched, engaging introduction to the animal kingdom. Beginning with animals in God's creation and the classification system, there is a brief discussion about humans as animals and an introduction to Charles Darwin's work. Once the Biblical foundation is established, animals are divided by their design: swim, flight and land mover. A variety of animals are studied within this designation before introducing extinct and fossilized animals, and how animals use their senses and communicate. Additionally, children learn about camouflage, bioluminescence, migration, habitats, hibernation, and more. Beautifully illustrated with photographs and drawings. A recommended supplement to My Father's World Exploration to 1850. Indexed. 117 pgs, hc. ~ Deanne
